Profile

Dr Donatella Tampieri has received her degree in Medicine and certificate of Specialist in Radiology from the University of Bologna, Italy in 1986. Since 1984 she worked as neuroradiologist in the Department of Neuroradiology of Ospedale Niguarda-Ca Grande in Milano. After a fellowship in Neuroradiology at the Montreal Neurological Hospital and Institute she was offered a position as assistant professor in October 1987.

Since then Dr Tampieri has practice diagnostic and interventional Neuroradiology in the same institution. She currently holds the position of Chief of Neuroradiology at the Montreal Neurological Hospital and Institute and she is Professor of Radiology, Neurology and Neurosurgery at McGill University.
Dr Tampieri has contributed with over 200 articles in peer review journal and several chapters in book. She has obtained many grants and recognition and she has been invited as VP and guest speaker in multiple occasions.

Her scientific interests are: treatment of intracranial aneurysms, vascular malformations and endovascular revascularization. she partecipates in muticenter trial for the evaluation of new devices for the treatment of intracranila aneurysms such as Silk stent .In Diagnostic Neuroradiology her major interest is epilepsy and brain tumors.

Finally Dr Tampieri has served in several national an international society holding various position in their administrative board. She is currently the Chair of the Council of Physicians at the Montréal Neurological Hospital and Institute.

TEACHING-Overview

From 1990 to 1998, I have served as Resident Coordinator in the Department of Radiology at the Montreal Neurological Hospital and as Member of the Post Graduate Education Committee of the Department of Radiology at McGill University.

I collaborated on the establishment of the two-year fellowship program in Neuroradiology at McGill in 1994 and I have been serving as a committee member on this program since 1999. I’m in charge of all teaching activities in Interventional Neuroradiology and Endovascular Neurosurgery at McGill; and I supervise all the fellows attending our program.

Since 1987 I have both supervised and taught 25 clinical fellows in neuroradiology, 9 research fellows and 47 observers. The teaching activities include: hands on teaching during diagnostic and interventional procedures on clinical cases, teaching at the workstation during case discussions, assistance and supervision of paper preparation for presentation at scientific meeting, and preparation of clinical rounds and formal lectures. Since 1986, I have been invited to give over 80 lectures and seminars in North American and European Universities.  I have presented 72 original papers at national and international scientific meetings.

Other Contributions
Overview

Since 1999, I am the Head of Diagnostic and  Interventional Neuroradiology at the Montreal Neurological Hospital and Institute, McGill University Health Center (MUHC).  I have served as President of the Eastern Neuroradiological Society (ENRS) in 1997-1998 and I have been co-chair of the Annual Scientific Program (1993-2004).  The ENRS is the eastern section of the American Society of Neuroradiology (ASNR).  I was invited as moderator in many international meetings and I was presiding officer during the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) meeting for 3 years.  I have been serving as editorial reviewer for the American Journal of Neuroradiology (AJNR) since 1993 and I am on the review board of the Canadian Journal of Radiology since 1991.  I have been on several occasions an « Ad Hoc » reviewer for the following journals:  Neurology, Brain and Cognition and Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences.
